Get Comfortable

The most important part about masturbating is to make sure you're comfortable. Even if you get the urge to masturbate in the school bathroom...just, don't. Do it somewhere you are comfortable, like your room or your bed. The better you feel about where you are physically, the better you will feel mentally.

Look At A Mirror

This isn't a MUST, but it's actually a really good idea to see what's going on down there, especially if you're just starting out. Grab a mirror or head to the bathroom and get a look at yourself. It's a little scary, but the more you know about your body, the more you will get comfortable enough to try out things you like.
